Alexander Brown House
Alexander Brown House, Romanesque Revival mansion in Syracuse, United States
The Alexander Brown House features Potsdam sandstone construction with Spanish tile elements and stretches across multiple levels at West Onondaga Street.
Built in 1895, this residence belonged to Alexander T. Brown, co-founder of Brown-Lipe-Chapin Company, which later integrated into General Motors Corporation.
The architectural design by Gordon Wright exemplifies the late 19th-century Romanesque Revival style prevalent among wealthy industrialists in upstate New York.

The residence incorporated advanced engineering features including a hydraulic elevator, house-wide vacuum system, and a specialized glass tile-covered skylight illuminating the attic.
